I don't know if this was clear in the previous mail. Please note
that

Aneesh,
This has been seen on tx25 and analyzed over the last few days. The root cause was found to be a change in the .rel.dyn handling by the compilers. See if the fixes in
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/88156 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/88157 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/88158
can apply to your board; either the .lds fix as done in the first two patches, or the fix in the third one, or both.
Thanks. This helps. I did the .lds change and it seems to be booting now.
However, I can't still explain my earlier observation because even in the absence of this fix .rel.dyn had some content and the offsets should have been different if I were to believe objdump.
Do you have any clue?
Best regards, Aneesh
